“Gala Des Oscars”

Sunway University College School of Hospitality, Tourism & Leisure Management (SHTLM) hosted a “Gala Des Oscars”, Charity Gala Dinner recently at the Multipurpose Hall in Sunway University College.


The theme “Gala Des Oscars” which meant “a celebration of entertainment in the style of the Oscars” ensured a grand affair with lively performances in belly dancing and hip hop, pre-event activities and decorations based on the glamourous Oscars and Hollywood set.



This charity dinner was in aid of Generating Opportunities for Learning Disables (GOLD) of Sekolah Menengah Kebangsaan Bandar Sunway. The objective of the event was to launch the pledge between the SHTLM and GOLD, to raise funds for equipping the new arts and crafts room for the special class of learning disabled students there. This was also to instill event organising skills amongst the students of the Diploma in Conventions and Events Management and the Diploma in Hospitality taking the Special Events Management module. It also provided opportunities between both organisations to interact, learn positive values and to create more awareness of the challenges faced by these special students


Special awards were presented by the SHTLM to Coordinators of GOLD:- Puan Hjh. Juairiah Bt. Hj. Johari and Mrs Mary Chen. Volunteer of GOLD, Mrs Nancy Thoo, who despite her disability caused by a stroke, offers her untireless support at the GOLD Street Bakery and Café and an award to the Most Outstanding Student of GOLD, 22 year old, Syed Norsyafiq bin Syed Ahmad Marzuki.

A cheque of RM5,000 was also presented by the SHTLM to GOLD of SMK Bandar Sunway, which is part of the pledge to raise funds for equipping the new arts and crafts room at the school.
